Chapters

ATS chapters further the purpose of the Society. Each chapter represents a state or other geographical area and includes in its membership 30 or more active ATS members. Chapters hold a minimum of one scientific meeting and one business meeting each year. Each chapter designates a representative to the Council of Chapter Representatives which provides a national forum in which to address issues of education, practice, research and public policy that are of relevance to the chapters.

The information provided and opinions reflected in the publications and statements of the Chapters represent the views of the author(s) or position of the Chapter only. The American Thoracic Society does not share, endorse, or warrant any such information or opinion published or provided by a Chapter unless specifically indicated otherwise.
